Looks pretty similar to me, but I don't have the picky eyes. Mainly need to remember Dell MUST turn off auto brightness cause it's too damn dim otherwise.... hhmmm.. maybe the BIOS fixed it.. nope, still too dim.

Yes, I got the 64GB

As for backtracking, downloaded the old BIOS version installer, and yeah.. it doesn't want to install an older version.

Both looks the same, the W4 seems to be brighter, but I'm wondering if its just a trick of the colour temperature of the screen, the W4 seems to be warmer so there's a timge of yellow in its output, where as the Dell is colder so theres a tinge of blue in the display.

You mean the Venue Pro 8 is not available locally "at the moment" OR won't be brought-in by Dell Malaysia?
Can we direct purchase from Amazon.com? Thanks for any comments.

I have checked IPmart (USA) & they quoted at RM1,156.61 plus RM80.85 shipping with estimated time of 3 to 8 weeks delivery. Apparently IPmart (M'sia) do not carry this product.

Just wanted to know whether they are reliable & trustworthy ..... anyone tried purchasing thro' them before? Thanks for your comments.

I was at Low Yat Plaza yesterday but couldn't spot any Dell Venue Pro 8" on display. Even the staffs from the DELL showroom have no idea whether they will be bringing in this model :-(

Anyway, I spotted the Acer Iconia W4 on display at All IT Hypermarket & they are selling at offer price of RM1,099, which is RM100 cheaper than the listed retail price. Quite impressive, I should say. Will still wait for a week or two .... if still no sign of Dell Venue then may go for Iconia W4.
